Join us for a 30-minute candlelight Rosary Procession around the St. Eugene Church/School campus. We will meet at the Fatima Grotto at 6:00 p.m. on Good Friday, March 29th. This procession is referred to as “Walking Mary Home,” for by doing this walk, we are honoring the pain and sorrow that Our Lady felt as she left her Son’s tomb and began the long walk home.

We invite all families to join us on Sunday, April 14th, from 3 - 5:00 p.m. in the Msgr. Becker Center for fun and fellowship. Families are encouraged to bring snacks. Also, please bring a glass jar with a lid because Fr. Brown will talk for a few minutes about sacramental holy water. We will have the chance to get to know one another as our children play. For questions call Annette Righetti at: 707-542-3635.

Our warmest welcome to all who worship in our community. If you are not registered in the parish, please complete a registration card. Cards are available at church entrances or at the parish office.

Please contact the office at least 12 months in advance for weddings and 3 months in advance for baptisms. Check the parish website for more information.

Please call the parish office when a parishioner is home bound or hospitalized to arrange for Holy Communion and Anointing of the Sick.

St. Eugene Parish encourages parishioners to use offertory envelopes. They are a long standing tradition and provide many benefits such as convenience, privacy, and serve as a reminder of special collections. Stop by the parish office to pick up your “starter envelope” set. You will be assigned a unique number and new envelopes will be mailed to your home. Many parishioners also donate online thru our website or have their bank mail a recurring check. All donations are recorded and a year-end donation statement can be sent to you for tax preparation. Also, please register/update your information with the office so we can provide all your sacramental and religious needs.
